Honolulu police are investigating a gunpoint robbery and ATM theft at a gas station in Waipio early this morning.
Honolulu Police Department District 3 Patrol officers responded to the robbery at a gas station on Ka Uka Boulevard just after 3 :30 a.m.
The 57-year-old victim reported that the first suspect entered the store with a handgun and held him at gunpoint. The second and third suspects entered, wrapped a chain around the ATM inside the store and pulled it out into the white van, according to a news release.
